PoliticsRe: I Didn't Call For A Coup — Bishop Kukah by Cantonese:
Coronabirus:
Kuka is wrong and his statement is partisan or inflammatory.
Never in history a Northerner plotted coup against a Southerner. Saying if it's a Southerner handling this govt PMB is doing there would've been a coup is totally wrong and unacceptable because it never happened.
"Never in history a northerner plotted coup against a southerner". Have you not taken your time to avail yourself of historical facts or ask those with information?

Have you not heard of Gowon's coup against Aguiyi Ironsi (6 months in the office) in 1966 (coined as a counter coup)?

Did you not hear of how Sani Abacha, in 1994, removed Chief Ernest Shonekan (3 months in the office) as the interim president?

Aside from those two and General Olusegun Obasanjo (in 1977 - 1979) when else did southerners rule during the military era? Was it not known as a coup?

Please check your records again.

May God bless Bishop Kukah, it is a pity that Buhari hates any form of criticism, this isn't democracy. It is tyranny to try to silence the the truth
Highly intolerant people. They never gave GEJ any breathing space. They called him all sorts of names. Forced him to sign the FOI. They arranged crowds in the name of protests. They said "an attack on boko haram is an attack on the north". They told us that GEJ had put Nigerians into untold hardship. All they put GEJ through, they cannot tolerate today. More people have been killed by the combined forces of boko haram and herdsmen than any other time. Before now Nigerians were scared of armed robbers on the highways. Now the fear is kidnappers.

Between 2015 and 2020 Nigeria has experienced two recessions. Nigeria has borrowed from everywhere including African countries. All promises cancelled. Jagbajantis intete!

Igbo people skull mining is second to none and it happens daily in your baby factories strewn all over Nigeria.Babies and infants are daily been skull mined and even eaten.


Secondly you have hallucinations just like your ancestors...

Biafra has the best army in Africa- Runaway Coward Ojuku.

"Skull mining second to none". Do you truly believe yourself? That's what we are talking about, how your people copied and exported it.

"Poverty"? They say "person wey no go another person papa farm go say na im papa own big pass". Do not forget all your abules. They wreak of abject poverty. Because you have never travelled out of your immediate community to other areas, you"ll not know how much more civilized those area are than yours.

"Babies eaten". But a woman collided with her son and a native doctor to eat a young lady in your land. Do not forget that it's a daily occurrence.

June 12 nko? Maybe you were a baby then. Your messiah ran away at a point.

"Hallucinations". That's why you and your people have sleepless nights over Igbo matters...have you not noticed?

"We developed Indonesia"? No. We developed the southwest, that's why people like you enjoy what you enjoy today.

"Poverty stricken Igbos". No. It's the other way round. Poverty stricken Yorubas. That's why you and your ladies easily find joy in the hands of Igbo boys begging for daily bread.

Yes. Those who used their "poverty" to teach you skull mining, according to you, which you have permanently clung to and still struggle to deal with the abject poverty in your own lands. What can you do without them?

So now that your people have discovered the secrets of using fellow humans to get rich quick, how can you take away the technology from them when the Igbos leave? Now that your people are champions of them game how can you help them?

Igbos invented skull mining with Otokoto and Okija shrine millions of heads. Igbos then exported the skull mining culture to the SW through Clifford Orji.
Igbos exported skull mining to the SW as millions of Igbo refugees arrive SW monthly.
They come in droves everyday.I bet their heads have been mined and new arrivals are preparing to still migrate to the SW.

Remove Igbos from SW and skull mining will disappear from SW and still continues in its natural space where it originated from which is Igboland.Every crime has an Igbo face.Ask baby factory chairman..
"Igbos exported skull mining to the SW". Hahahahahahaha. Who knows how old you were in the days of otokoto. I know that as usual the story was handed down to you by your elders.

Going by your comment one can safely say that the southwesterners perfected skull mining. Took over. Made it the major source of livelihood and started the exportation nationwide and worldwide.

Never look the truth in the face and deny it. If Buhari was fair at all times, would people complain?

To you OBJ and GEJ were not as fair as PMB in their appointments. Maybe you chose to be mischievous in your contribution or you did not get your facts right. OBJ and GEJ were very fair in their appointments and they did more for he north. Look at your PMB today. University of transport ongoing project in Daura. Railway network passing through Daura to Niger, etc. Did you ever hear of OBJ building any such thing in Ota or Owu?

When you drew your list, why did you fail to give us the list of all the MDAs? You need to take a better look to prove to yourself the lopsidedness of the political appointments. Even the southwest that pushed the PMB agenda suffers a loss, necessitating the definitely failing plan for Tinubu to become the president.

Christianity EtcRe: I Practised Christianity For 30 Years; Black Magic For 9 Years, But None Worked by Cantonese: 4:56pm On Dec 24, 2020
HopeSpencer:
For 30 years, I practised undiluted Christianity. Don't come here with the story of 'maybe you were not saved' blabla. My life was in shambles.

I ported to black magic after visiting my powerful village kinsmen. To eat was hard before consultation with the dark powers. Then my situation improved for 2 years. During those two years, I stepped up consultation with the dark powers in a bid to stay afloat. Still, I came crashing after those 2 years.

I consulted the oracle again and was told to do sacrifices. I did them but no changes. I looked around for famous spiritualists and consulted them. No changes.

I recently met another powerful herbalist, say herbalist A. He told me what the problem is and the solution. I didn't pay for the solution but I looked for another powerful herbalist B somewhere else who told me same thing herbalist A told me. I then went back to herbalist A and paid for the solution. Herbalist A said I was to bear 3 sacrifices. He told me cost of all the 3 sacrifices and I paid it. On the day of bearing the sacrifices, he prepared only 2 sacrifices, and I didn't question him about the third. Herbalist A later reminded me 2 months later that one sacrifice is pending and he gave me a new cost. I didn't argue with him that I initially paid for 3 sacrifices. I haven't felt any difference and you reminded me of a 3rd sacrifice which I think I already paid for. Imagine, this herbalist A has more than 3 houses and I have none.

The problem here is that my problems look spiritual. I have skills that can't put food on my table.
And is it out of fear of a reprisal or deliberate deceit that you failed to tell us if you sojourned in Islamism?

CelebritiesRe: Genevieve Nnaji Estate Almost Completed! by Cantonese: 11:30am On Dec 23, 2020
Bro please your idea, just like those of others who view your idea from the same perspective, appear too one sided. Look at the advantages of Igbos investing their hard earned resources in other parts of the country. Where ever the Igbos establish industries they also create jobs for their people.

Igbo land is truthfully very developed and we need not just us the Igbos to contribute our quota to further develop Igboland but to attract others to our lands to develop.

Nigeria has attracted other countries to invest here. If foreigners did not come, how could we have arrived at this stage? For foreign investors to come Nigeria needs to make the nation conducive for them to invest and our nation will grow more. If you take a look at a lot of the industries in the east, you"ll find the Yorubas, the Kogis and others from other states. You find artisans from the south west justling to get jobs in the east. Travel in public buses and you"ll find many of them happily travelling to the east to work.

Those Igbos who have invested in other parts of our country project our image as versatile people. They show that the Igbos can thrive where ever they are, given the right opportunities.

Our problem should not be that our people do not build industries or estates in the east, but how to tackle corruption, which has over the years hindered the development of this country.

Bluntemperor:
NO NO NO to the Lagos State methods of using Task Force on Civilians!
Is it not same Task Force Who bids directly or indirectly to get the bicycles seized?
In a normal settings like India - you have - Keke Nappep,the Okada and Cars jostling along the road in New Delhi and suburbs,without any molestation.
Most of the time here when the Task Force boys need money or cash,they launch operations and seized private properties.This is wrong and a better methods and approach should be adopted! While we condemned the indiscipline of the Okada riders but it is the same Politicians that uses them during an elections and discard them one ins the elections are over. Too bad!
In India you do not find Okadas. You find private bikes ridden by the owners, not for commercial purposes. Kekes are called Autos and you do not find them riding lawlessly against the traffic.

For society to function effectively, laws and rules must be obeyed. Some of us should not give ourselves away as law breakers or supporters of acts of illegality. In some states, Okada operations are completely banned and yet no one fights government there. Why must people make mockery of the efforts of the government of Lagos.

The task force is not there to take bribe, but rather enforce the rules. It is unfortunate that people lose their sources of livelihood this way, but you blame the greedy riders. They want to leave street corners where they are restricted to and ride in highways where they can take home twenty times that amount daily.

By the way have can you be able to quantify the lives lost on one ways and the reckless behaviour of Okadas?

If they say dont operate Okada on this particular road, please DONT.

ISSUES
The Govt should also Sign-Post all Roads properly so that Motorists dont need to be asking one dubious and mischievous Policeman, whether a Road is one-way or not, the Security Agents mislead Drivers most times, so they can arrest them and seize their vehicles.

Also, there is so much Corruption and malfeasance, in the Auctioning of seized vehicle, by those Auctioning it.
Infact, those who partake (and their family members) in the seizing should be barred from partaking in the auctioning or purchase of such vehicle, due to CONFLICT OF INTEREST.
The Process should be open and very transparent, not the current 'robbery' Lagos State Govt is said to be doing at Alausa

Finally, l hope Lagos Govt is not creating more Armed Robbers for the People of Lagos, with all these their actions, in th emidst of a Pandemic, Unemployment and recent unrest as a result of the #EndSA huhRS protest? huh huh
"I hope govt is not creating more armed robbers for the people of Lagos". NO.

Do not forget that government did not place a total ban on Okadas and kekes. They have routes. The reasonable ones stick to the approved routes. The greedy and foolish ones irresponsibly supported by the "get there quickly" passengers ply the prohibited routes, get arrested and lose their bikes. If they choose to become robbers, which some of them already are, they will get arrested too.

Endsars came and left. Lagos has been taken over by NURTW touts and you see them illegally controlling traffic and collecting tolls all over. Government has the responsibility of ensuring sanity on the roads. I've always said that police will bounce back and be more ruthless following their losses. Our citizens must be more careful and law abiding.
